Sorry, maybe I should ave made that clear - it's why I wrote "LHM
types", which I meant to cover LHM, LHM2 and LHM2+. They are all
backwards compatible ...

: WARNING: LHM and LHM2 are green, LHS and LHS2 are red. LHS will rip
: throught your seals so fast your head will spin!

.... but indeed not with LHS which is more like your standard brake
fluid. And just to compete the set, LHS was the synthetic replacement
for the original castor-based Citroen hydraulic fluid. Perhaps just
LH?
